This release is the latest update to the Emmy award-winning software that is considered the industry-standard for camera and object tracking.
One of the most significant updates in Boujou is its improved solver. With more feedback and tools, users can now exploit everything in the shot. Boujou can solve an approximate camera path, optimize camera position, or fill in gaps.
Another notable feature is Boujou's model-based camera and object tracking capabilities. The software enables users to import 3D objects, so camera solves can be made based on the correspondence between feature tracks and faces of polygon mesh. Boujou 4 also allows users to import survey information in the form of a 3D mesh to improve 3D solve accuracy or import a 3D object to 'eyeball' approximate camera positions on select frames.
The software further allows users to import and export 3D meshes for their projects. Exporting a 3D mesh of the 3D points calculated in Boujou enables users to create shadow casting objects or 3D terrain.
Boujou also has a scripting and extended command set functionality, allowing users to access the software's core features with embedded scripting. Users can also control the number of 3D points generated by Boujou and export only the most accurate ones or export more points for a more detailed mesh.
Finally, Boujou 4 comes with a redesigned interface for a much smoother workflow. It is essential to register on the developer's website to download Boujou.
